Ancora condivisione. Ancora una canzone, che ho amato. 
Era l'Irlanda, nel 2003: una vancanza studio un po' tardiva, ma era più una scusa per vedere l'Irlanda e passarci del tempo.
Colonna sonora, Ani Difranco - artista che avevo scoperto da poco più di un anno e da cui non mi riusciva più staccarmi. E lì, entrai in contatto con questo brano, grazie anche ad un altro fan di cui non ricordo il nome e che saluto, se si riconosce in queste righe.
L'Irlanda... le Cliffs furono forse la prima parte del mondo che mi lasciò in meditazione. Lì affrontai la mia paura del vuoto e rimasi sdraiato sporgendomi dal bordo di un masso a guardare questa enorme ferita della terra. 
Vi lascio al video e al testo.



Ani Difranco, Evolve (lyrics).
i walk in stride with people much taller than me and partly it's the boots but mostly it's my chi and i'm becoming transfixed with nature and my part in it which i believe just signifies i'm finally waking up   and there's this moth outside my kitchen door she's bonkers for that bare bulb flying round in circles bashing in her exoskull and out in the woods she navigates fine by the moon but get her around a light bulb and she's doomed   she is trying to evolve she's just trying to evolve   now let's get talking reefer madness like some arrogant government can't by any stretch of the imagination outlaw a plant yes, their supposed authority over nature is a dream c'mon people we've got to come clean   cuz they are locking our sons and our daughters in cages they are taking by the thousands our lives from under us it's a crash course in religious fundamentals now let's all go to war get some bang for our buck   i am trying to evolve i'm just trying to evolve   gunnin for high score in the land of dreams morbid bluish-white consumers ogling luminous screens on the trail of forgetting cruising without a care the jet set won't abide by that pesky jet lag and our lives boil down to an hour or two when someone pulls a camera out of a bag   and i am trying to evolve i'm just trying to evolve   so i walk like i'm on a mission cuz that's the way i groove i got more and more to do i got less and less to prove it took me too long to realize that i don't take good pictures cuz i have the kind of beauty that moves.
